Aulas (Lyon President) has said an unnamed EPL team have entered the bidding. 😮
Fake news
He says ‘an unnamed PL club were monitoring the situation & things could change in the morning’ (today). Nothing concrete. Ex says Paqueta is at Rush Green.
Aulas: “It's unfortunate that Lucas Paqueta is leaving. But he wanted to leave. We thought we had very big clubs, we didn't have them. We had to talk at the last moment with West Ham… …Now I know that there was an English club that wanted to come forward at the last moment so maybe tomorrow morning we'll wake up with a novelty. I can't tell you the name,"
Ex says he’s undergoing media work so for a hijack to take place now would be very unlikely. Lots of stirring on Twitter regarding to Liverpool, Spurs & Newcastle.
One reason could be that he needs a work permit and today is a Bank Holiday. Another is that he has signed but waiting on Media / PR duties, and we all know how good those teams are. Or he may have been hi-jacked.
You would like to think that West Ham would issue a statement one way or the other as to whether these rumours are true, if for no other reason than to settle everyone's nerves. Fat chance.

It’s a very important decision.
Fat chance.
